The Crescent and Star have put the ticket
of the Columbia Democratic Convention at the
bead of their columns, aud publish full reports
of a conservative meeting held at the court?
house on Monday. C. D. Evans was called to
the chair, and addresses were delivered by pro?
minent citizens. W. S. Mullins, Esq., was the
first speaker, and he was followed by Colonel
St. Clair and David LeGette, Esq. The com?
mittee to prepare business then reported a re?
solution "That the people of Marion have the
ngbt to demand the services of any man whom
they think useful to the common cause," which
was adopted, as were the following nomina?
tions: Senator-J. Eb Gregg. Representatives
-T. E. Stackbouse, Geo. E. Shooter, D. H. Le?
Gette, and W. S. Ellerbe.
An executive committee of six was appoint?
ed to take charge of the affairs of the party,
as follows: W. S. Mullins, Gen. Wm. Evans,
Gen. R. F. Graham, Major Durham, and A. Q.
McDuffie and C. D. Evans, Esqs.
A Republican moss meeting was held at the
jourtbouse on Wednesday. The Crescent
says:
The Republican meeting at this place on last
irVednesday was addressed by Mr. Whittemore :
ind Dickinson. The latter was very zealous
n stirriug ap strife among our colored friends,
while the former endeavored to carry out the 1
same policy in his "smoothy oily tongue" de?
ceptive manner, well calculated to mislead the
colored people. Their nominees were then
made for tho various offices for State and dis- '
trict. as follows: Por the Senate, (V. S. Collins,

GEORGETOWN.
A correspondent in Georgetown sends tho
following particulars of a Republican meeting,
beld on the 1th instant:
The Republicans made their nominations to?
day, with enthusiastic demonstrations. The
freedmen from their respective plantations 18
sembled en masse to participate in the selec- ;
tion of their representatives to the General
Assembly. Prior to the meeting groups were
to be seen in every direction on Bay-street,
holding their caucusses and cLUcussing (he ?
merits and demerits of the respective candi- .
dates for nomination. The shrill shriek of the
ufe, however, soon summoned them to their
rendezvous, where a bot contest ensued be?
tween the friends and supporters of the several
candidates, lasting until near five o'clock, with .
the following results:
For Senate-J. H. Rainey (colored).
House of Representabves-H. W. Webb ;
(white), W. H. Jones, Jr. (colored), F. F. Mil?
ler (white).
Clerk ot the Court-Calvin Coe (white).
For Sheriff-S. R. Carr (whito).
The probability is that the above ticket Trill
be revised, and the name of F. F. Miller be
stricken therefrom, as it was afterwards ascer?
tained that he procured his nomination through
gross misrepresentations, and still grosser im?
position upon the credulity of the ilhterato
freedmen.

OOH CITY AS VIEWED B? A MARYLANDER.-The
editor of the Baltimore Gazette, recently a so
jouraei in Charleston, seems to have taken a
decidedly sombre view of the aspect of affairs
iiere. He gives his impressions of our com?
munity as follows :
The people, as far as I can judge, bear
themselves with a calm, staunch courage that
LS admirable. They will not abandon the hone
that the land ot their fathers is one day to be
rescued from the domination of the ignorant
negroes and the prownng strangers who have
Deen enabled to take possession of it. They
>ee that it is idle to contend with the mighty
power which now brandishes over them tho
sword of the conqueror, but they know also
:iiat rights miy be redeemed sometimes by
infiincning endurance when their vindication
}y ether lueaus bas failed, and they have set
bemselves down to suffer patiently, in tao
rust that time will bring redress. Broken in
ortune they are unbroken in spirit, and face
beir appalling troubles undismayed, '.nth
:he courtesy which ever distinguished them
bey are BB ready as ever to extend to a friend
.he bospitabties of their bornes. Men who a
few years ago would have invited you to tables
idorned with the elegancies and crowned with
tho' luxuries of life, will ask you now to sbare
their humble or scanty faro with the same
ruict grace with which they were wont to bid
you to their fi-astintrs. They know no lake
shame in their -..ltered 6tato, and have no apol?
ogies to ma tt for their poverty.
THE PRESIDENT'S TRIAL.
THE PROCEEDINGS ON SATURDAY.
HOW THE PROSECUTION CLOSED.
The Senate on Saturday met at eleven A. M.,
and took up Mr. Sherman's motion to throw
open tho galleries during tho impeachment.
Mr. Conness feared this would lead to rebellion
and other disorders, but was willing to risk it
for three days, and then, supposing the life of
the nation to survive, to open or shut on the
general public as might import best to senato?
rial wisdom. Mr. Frelinghuysen was not ap?
prehensive of a rebellion, but thought if the
doors were thrown open the people of this city
would secure more than a fair sbare of seats.
Mr. Davis offered an amendment designed to
prevent white persons being excluded from
seats by negroes addicted to early rising, which
suggestion almost throw Mr. Morrill into a
spa6ra. The d?bate continued in a piquant
style, but was cut short by the arrival of the
hour for opening tho court. We copy the In?
telligencer's summary:
"The House of Representatives" were an?
nounced, made their grand entrance, some
seventeen in number, and were accommodated
with seats without difficulty.
Mr. L. L. Walbridge was the first witness.
He was a stenographer; took notes of tho Pres?
ident's St. Louis spoech, and testified to the
correctness of the report in tho St. Louis Dem?
ocrat of Sunday, September 9,1806. After a
brief cross-examination, the speech was read
by tho Secretary. It had doubtless been tho
expectation of the House managers to produce
a good doa! of sensation and amusement by
ibis reading; but, savo from a sot of profes?
sional claquers in the middle aisle, nothing of
tins kind was elicited. Mr. Morrill did, in?
deed, once or twice indulge in a smile, but
gave no other sign of special gratification.
Mr. Colfax behaved with customary propriety.
The speech was a pretty damaering one to
the Radical cause; it was not, perhaps, very
smooth or oratorical in its structure, but for
an off-hand effort it exposed capitally the Con?
gressional intrigues by which a conflict of
races was precipitated at New Orleans, and the
slavery of the Freedmen's Bureau substituted
ior the old domination of the planter, as well
as the hickory by which in one bill a small sum
was given by way of bounty to the white
soldier, a larger sum to the nepro, and S4000
per annum extra compensation to the bomb?
proof Radical Congressmen. In short, tho
speech was a telling aud effective arraignment
cf Congress; but we could not help reflecting
that tho very body of partisans whose miscon?
duct was thus held up by the Presideut to the
people on that occasion had now a fino oppor?
tunity to wreak a safe revenge-sittinjras a
court ot impeachment to determine whether
their accuser before their common master, the
people, should hold office, or whether they
should not seize tho opportunity to turn him
out and put a member of their own body in
his place. Of course, such a conjecture of cir?
cumstances will be conceded to be eminently
favorable to the exercise of the judicial faculty.
Mr. Joseph A. Dean, another stenographer,
also took notes of tho St. Louis speech, and
made a report which he stated to be substan?
tially correct. This was put in evidence. On
a brief cross-examination this witness testified
that for an ordinary speaker it would take four
times as long to write out his speech as ho
would be in speaking, and for a rapid speaker
seven times as long. This testimony was un?
derstood to have some bearing upon that of the
Radical ?diter thc other day, who pretended to
mako a verbatim report in long hand, on his
knee, of the President's spoech at Cleveland.
Mr. Robert S. Chew, Chief Clerk of tho State
Department, was the next witness, and01)ave
his evidence in a very succinct and intelligent
manner. He testified that the old form of
commissions was "during the pleasure of the
President for the time being; but that since 1
the passage of the Tenure-of-ofiice law the i
phraseology had been "subject to tho con- 1
ditious prescribed by law." On cross-examina?
tion by Mr. Stanbery, Mr. Chew stated that no ;
commission had ever issued with the words, or i
their equivalent, "to hold office until removed
by tho President, with the consent of the Sen?
ate." Since the 2d of .March, 1867. no com- 1
mission had been issued to tho head of a j
department, and during a period of thirty- .
three years of official service, prior to 1867, all 1
commissions had run "during the pleasure of 1
the President." i
Mr. Butler's aim seemed to be to show that
thc President had recognized the Tenure-of- .
office law, or, at least, had avoided, as far as ;
possible, any infraction of it. Suppose it were J
to appear, as contended for, that in ordinary 1
routine cases the President had yielded his
convictions for the Bake of peace, and only
made a stand when it was proposed to foist an '
odious cabinet officer upon bis confidence, who 1
then would appear as tho aggressor and fit ?
subject for impeachment ? But it will bo no?
ticed that the phraseology employed by the
State Department commission carefully leaves
the validity of the Tenure-of-office law to be .
hereafter determined, as Mr. Johnson desired,
by the judicial tribunals.
General Butler next put in evidence a list 1
furnished by Mr. Seward, exhibiting one re?
moval, viz : that of Mr. Pickering, during the
session of the Senate (be being the only Cabi?
net officer down to 1807 who ever refused to re?
sign), and also a great number of acting, und
several ad interim appointments of Secreta?
ries. These cases being similar in principle to
that ot General Thomas, really went to prove
up the President's case.
Mr. Stanbery wanted to ask whether Mr.
Chew ever knew ot a Cabinet officer, who, on
hoing requested to resign, bad declined so to
do; but this damaging question Mr. Butler
would not consent should he put. Stanton and
Pickering are, however, known to be thc only
cuBes of the Cabinet-barnacle type on record.
Aa General Butler read the letter of Pickering
to Mr. John Adtms, giving his reasons for re?
fusing to resign, it was curious to note the
correspondence in some passages with tho let?
ter of Mr. Stanton, the cool, easy defiance with
which Pickering declined to accede to the Pres?
ident's "overture," as he called it; but then
Mr. Pickering pleaded the pecuniary induce?
ments for his resolve to "stick,: '.nth a candor
that Mr. Stanton has not copied; though in
other respects the cr-ses accord.
Mr. Butler's next effort was to read a letter
of President Johnson to Secretary Mcculloch
in respect to the appointment of General Grant
to the War Department, m order to show that
by this notification the Tenure-of-offico law
waa recognized. General Butler should not
need to be told that one part of a law may
be good, and another bad. The letter of the
President was under the "eighth section," and
noue other, which, in case of changes in pub?
lic officers, made it the duty of the President
to notify the Treasury officials.
After the usual recess, General Butler, who
bas managed the impeachment cause almost
exclusively, and with conceded ability, deter?
mined to gratify his silent and obsequious sub?
ordinates by a grand dress parade. Accord?
ingly, Messrs. Boot well, Wilson and Bingham
were each allowed to get up in turn and read
documents for about five or ten minutes each.
This being over. Mr. Butler formally announced
that he had closed his case. Ht might have a
witness or two to make "cumulative" proof,
but "substantially" he was done. Mr. CILUB
tben asked that the court should adjourn until
Thursday to give time to the President's coun?
sel to collect, collate, and prepare their testi?
mony and proofs. He stated that they would
have* few oral witnesses, but a good deal of
documentary evidence, which they wished tune
to collect and prepare, and by tbie allowance
thpv would, as members ot the profession could
well understand, actually savo time.
Thc general feelinp; of the Senate was to al?
low this time without making difficulty, but
Mr. Sumner tried hard to prevent this indul?
gence. Amjug th08ewho supported Ur. Sum?
ner iu this were Mr. Conkling, the inevitable
Mr. Drake, Mr. Morgan, who has so far given
partisan votes even on motions to adjourn, and
Mr. Stowart-who "sticks" to one ei?e firmly.
Per contra. Mr. Howard, who, tboagh ultra, is
a good lawyer, knew a refusal would net be re
g.irded as decent by his profession, and voted
"aye " Mr. Tipton, fortified by thirty-six ad?
herents, announced in shrill treble a flat re?
bellion from the yoke of his cJlcague, Mr.
Thayer. In fact, the very depths were loosen?
ed, and the Chief Justice for an instant found
himself in tho Court he wished the Senate
to be.
And so tho trial stands over until Thursday.
It is but fair to General Butler to Bay, that con?
sidering thc laoat weakness of bia cause und
the absence of any useiul assistance from his
colleague*, ho has fought a stout battle with
the legal giant* opposer! to him.
TESTIMONY FOB THE PRESIDENT TN IMPEACH?
MENT-EFFORTS OF EXTREMISTS FOR CONVIC?
TION-PROBABILITIES OF FATE AND IMPARTIAL
TBLAL-GENERAL SHERMAN'S TESTIMONY-THE
ARGUMENTS, ETC.
The Washington correspondent of tho Balti?
more Sun writet. under date of the 5th inst.:
There are many points to bc made in evi?
dence by tho defence which are not anticipated
by the public possibly; but, nevertheless, they
arise legally and pertinently in the trial, and
will make the defonco so complete that, even
were not the case presented by tho impeachers
so flimsv and utterly devoid of proof of guilty
knowledge or criminal intent on the part of
the President, the Senate would be compelled
to render a verdict of acquittal.
It is, however, tho general impression among
tho public, and especially among mere superfi?
cial observers, that uo matter how thoroughly
and entirely tho defence may be maie out, the
Senate will convict as a party measure
This is believed by many, because the im?
peachers unequivocally proclaim to outsiders
that there is no doubt of a conviction, and yet
it is well known that these same impeachers
are seriously exercised becauaeof their failure
to obtain assurances from certain fourteen Re?
publican senators that they will convict with?
out refereuco to law or testimony. To the cre?
dit of theso reticent senators, be it known that
they have not agreed to any result, and that
tliey proposo to try the case upon its merits
and the law and testimony as presented in the
trial. Such has been then- response thus far
when approached by the schemers.
Nothing undaunted, however, the extreme
Radicals have organized for a vigorous and
what they say will be an irresistible movement
upon the'obstiuat3 senators, and they expect
this week to send to each particular member
their supposed influential constituents, to
threaten or entreat a promise to convict. Such
is their plan, as wc have it from an authentic
source.
It is more than probable, however, that the be?
sieged senators will administer proper rebukes
to their besiegers for such disgraceful attempt
to tamper with tho Senate. All the defence de?
mands is that the case may be tried and deter?
mined upon tho constitution, the law and the
facts that may bo adduced in evidence.
General Sherman arrived hero to-day in re?
sponse to :v subpoena requiring him to testily
fov the defendant. Judtre Curtis will mako che
argument tor tho President on Thursday next,
aud, as now arranged, the other spoccbes on
tho same side will bo made by Messrs. Evarts
and Stan bery, in tho order here named. It is
understood the two remaining speeches tor
the prosecution are to bo marje by Boutwell
and Bingham, tho latter to make tho closing
argument. _ _

MB. GLADSTONE'S RESOLUTIONS ON THE IRISH
CHURCH QUESTION-QUEEN VICTORIA ASKED TO
CEDE HER ECCLESIASTICAL INTERESTS.
By the steamship Hausa, at this port, we
have the verbatim text of Hr. Gladstone's reso?
lutions on thc Irish Church question, proposed
to Parliament on the 23d of March. A tele?
graph synopsis of the r?solutions reached us
by the Atlantio cable, but it was of a very
meagre character, particularly in the report of j
the third resolution.
THE RESOLUTTONS.
In the House of Commons on the 23d of
March, Mr. Gladstone, who was received with
opposition cheers, said : Tho motion which I
wish to make on the Irish Church will be in the
form of three resolutions, to be moved in com?
mittee on acts relating to the Established
Church in Ireland, and the terms of three j t
resolutions will bo these: 11
1. That, in the opinion of this House, it is
necessary that the Established Church of Ire?
land should cease to exist as an establishment
-(opposition cheers)-duo regard being had
to all personal interests and to all individual 11
rights of property. (Ironical ministerial cheers j f
and laughter. )
2. That, subject to the foregoing considera
lions, it is expedient to prevent tho creation
of new personal interests by the exercise of
any public patronage-(cheers)-and to confino
the operations of the Ecclesiastical Commis
sioners of Ireland to objects of immediate
necessity or involving individual nghts pond- '
ins: the final decision of Parliament.
3. That ahnmble address be presented to her t
Mojesty, humbly to pray that, with a view to t'
the purposes aforesaid, her Majesty wotdd be
graciously pleased to place at the disposal of
Parliament her interest in the temporalities of
the archbishoprics, bishoprics and other
ecclesiastical dignities and benefices in Ireland
and in the custody thereof. (Opposition | fl
cheers).
The right honorable gentleman continued
[ gave notice on Friday that I would take the t
liberty of asking Her Majesty's government ..
either to-day or to-morrow-whichever day
might best suit them-whether it was compati?
ble, in their views of the state ot public busi?
ness, to afford any assistance for the discussion
of this motion; and perhaps the right honor?
able gentleman will now bo pleased to say what
view he takes of that matter. In case it should
not be in the power of the right honorable
gentleman to afford such assistance I should
then feel it my duty to bring it on the first day
[ could regularly propose it, which, I believe,
would be on Friday next, as an amondment cn
going into Committee of Supply.
A PHASE OF FASHIONABLE LIFE n NEW YORK.
In Twenty-third-street, near Madison ave?
nue, is a genuine gambling house, patronized
exclusively by females. The Kew York corres?
pondent of a Syracuse paper describes it as fol?
lows :
It is a modest, unpretentious-looking house,
the entrance scrupulously clean, and pre?
senting no different appearance, externally,
than those adjoining, save tho blinds are all
tightly closed. Ringing tho boll, we are ad?
mitted by a gorgeously apparelled woman, who
acts as janitresu. Un'ouo side of the hall is a
superb painting of Leda and the Swan, on the
opposite side is another painting, equally good,
of Venus rising from the sea. Ascending the
stairs, we aro ushered into the parlors on the
first floor. They are elegantly, even luxurious?
ly furnished. The person who fitted up these
rooms must have bad exquisite taste. The t
paintingB hanging on the walls are rare
and valuable, but the most conspicuous,
and the one that first strikes the eye 1
and rivets the attention, is tbe painting
by Ary Schaffer of the gambling scone from
Bulwer's play of "Money," and for which,
it is stated,' August Belmont bas offered
$20,000, and been refused. Seated around the e
room and at the gaming table are a number of ' f
ladies, all of whom are dressed in the heitiht of
fashion. The players are flushed with excite?
ment; but the dealer, in her Pompadour waist,
half revealing, half concealing an ample bust,
sits calm and collected, and rakes in the
"chips" with the utmost sang-froid. Ever and
anon some player, when a neavy bet is lost,
calls for wine, which is speedily supplied by an
attentive and demure looting Hebe. That
lady at the centre of thu table, Bitting
between Anonyma and Aspasia, is the
wde ol one of our most wealthy merchants.
I could tell you her n ame, but tales must 1 *
never bo told out ol school. Observe that young t
lady with a bonnet no larger than a cockle
shell and Bismarck brown ribbons; the one who
is now taking off her diamond nug to stake,
and which abe will lose as sure as eggs are
eggs, is the daughter of an ex-judge. Ah 1 our
wealthy merchant's wife is a loser; see, Bho
rises from the table, biting her hps till tho I
blood cornea to conceal her emotions. Come, ' (
let us away. Such scenes do not make om*
opinion of poor, weak human nature the moro
exalted.
Is it any wonder that we BO frequently see
rewards offered for lost diamond rings, neck?
laces and bracelets ? If we had the power of j
Asmodeus, wo would seo these "lost" articles
m the safe of some gentleman who has tor his
sign tho old Lombardy emblem of three bal H.
The thirst for gambling will never be satisfied,
and money must be obtained.
